I wouldn't because it would be cumbersome but if I could have one conveniently, I would use it. I do use my Kindle dictionary if I'm even remotely curious about a word and I find it adds a great deal to my experience.

@Jon

If the PRS600 had been out when I was initially looking for a reader, I would have bought it even without the price drop on books. If I were looking to replace my reader now, it would be a strong contender. It has all my high-priority features which the 500 and 505 did not. It's not enough to get me to switch since my current Kindle fills my needs nicely. I also like the convenience of the sample chapters and Whispernet delivery. I wouldn't be surprised if Sony brings out something like that soon. I'm excited about what the next year will bring. If I were a newcomer to readers, it would be a tough choice.
